I smell potato croquettes
Or is it omelette?
A sharp hunger pang
Gnaws at my belly
It’s now been three days...
Staring at these four walls
Drives me delirious
Oh Lord!
I’m so foolish
Such a disaster
No!
Oh no!!
I’ve peed on the mattress again...
Days I’ve cried, days I’ve yelled
Minute by minute
But no-one knows of
My situation
A nightmare that’s so Kafkaesque
Nights I’ve cried, nights I’ve yelled
Hour by hour
Why did I do that?
I feel so stupid
Handcuffing myself to my bed
Oh no
The key is in my jacket
On the writing desk
Two metres away
On top of my jeans
Containing my mobile (She has no cell phone)
No sign of concerned friends
Oh Mum!
Why don’t you please
Free me from these cuffs?
No!
Oh no!!!
My parents are on holiday...
Days I’ve cried, days I’ve yelled
Minute by minute
But no-one can hear
My lamentations
Whilst hitting the wall with my head
Nights I’ve cried, nights I’ve yelled
Hour by hour
Why did I do that?
No food or water
Tomorrow I’ll surely be dead
Oh no
Oh no, oh no
Oh oh oh no!!!
(Nights she’s cried, nights she’s yelled)
Hour by hour
Why did I do that?
I feel so stupid
Handcuffing myself to my bed
Oh no...
